- [on working on "The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour" in 1957 ] I was so young and caught in the middle of America's favorite couple breaking up. Psychologically, I didn't know how to handle it because I was in the middle. They all were wonderful people but naturally there was tension.
- I wasn't a creative person; I never was. I didn't feel a calling for directing. I'm not like a lot of young people today who have cameras and shoot films and know this is their love. [Early on] "I didn't know anything. What helped me in my career was, one, being able to read a script and two, casting. I never believed that an audience watching a comedy show should ever say, 'What an interesting angle!' If they're starting to notice the camera work, then they're missing the writing and the performances.
